Cinnabon Roll Muffin Cup Recipe

I took the easy way out of making cinnamon rolls or the #copycat #cinnabon. I used a muffin tin to make uniform rolls and then poured the frosting over them. Boy were these addicting. I ate alot more than I wanted to trust me they are awesome!

While still warm I drizzle the frosting over the tops and just make a fine glaze

A much neater and easier to eat way to make rolls!
